Assos UMA GT Half Shorts S11 short - Black Series

Ultra-minimalistic cycling shorts for daily endurance comfort or indoor training, refined with a new fabric, a more breathable insert and an updated grip at the leg hems – with reduced weight and extended leg length for a more modern silhouette.

BEHIND THE PRODUCT SCENES
Relaxed coffee rides, indoor training or days that are too hot for bibs: The ST Half Shorts S11 are designed for specific situations where bibs restrict unnecessarily. The S11 generation updates the popular design among riders with a lighter, more durable main fabric in a deep, true black. A front panel made of Sens AIR at the waist provides stability, support and breathability without restrictions. The hip Click fit concept wraps around the entire waist and secures the shorts in place. Despite the updates, breathability remains high, and the new insert enhances cooling airflow through an additional ultra-light front panel.

FEATURED FABRICS
The new QUARTZ fabric is a lightweight, breathable knitted fabric with permanent odor control. The true-black colour does not turn white or transparent when stretched in normal use, and 80% of the composition is made from pre-consumer recycled polyamide. A Sens AIR band in the lower abdomen area reduces pressure in aggressive riding positions.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT
Our slim regular fit and body-hugging design reduce seams and eliminate friction for comprehensive comfort and easy layering.

ENGINEERING
PiLtec Plug-In:
Lightweight, highly breathable fabric band at the leg hem. The externally
invisible microdot silicone treatment stabilises the fit and maintains grip
in dry or wet conditions;
hipfClick: Waist construction made of elastic and mesh layers with a high, non-restrictive waist height that stabilises the panels and secures the insert;
zeroPressure Waist: soft, highly elastic waist construction that improves comfort and support
without pressure or digging in.

GT S11 Insert
Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono12: Compressive foam layers in a 12 mm endurance platform. The thermoformed shaping reduces edges and irritations;

3D Waffle: patented, three-layer perforated foam that enhances breathability and eliminates excess weight;

goldenGate 2.0: free-floating construction that moves with the body instead of working against it. New cutouts on the wings reduce friction throughout pedalling.
